I understand. I dislike them all. There is no ethical consumption under capitalism! ✊
The new patch may improve this. I removed some debugging code that was meant only for Chromium-based browsers. However, I’m unaware of any modern Webkit-based browsers, like Safari, that I can run on my Windows or Linux machine to test this myself. Please let me know if that improves things at all.
My understanding is that the Chromium project is open-source and maintained by folks who aren’t necessarily affiliated with Google, although they are the main sponsors. I tested in a few other Chromium-based browsers. Works as intended in Opera, Brave, and Microsoft Edge too.
I found that Firefox and other Gecko-based browsers do not work very well. There are plenty of audio glitches and undesired sounds. I don’t see a path forward to support Firefox at this time.
Of course, this demonstrates why the browser monoculture is bad for everyone.
